Hyperspectral image is acquired with a special sensor in which the information is collected continuously. This sensor will provide abundant data from the scene captured. The high voluminous data in this image give rise to the extraction of materials and other valuable items in it. This paper proposes a methodology to extract rich information from the hyperspectral images. As the information collected in a contiguous manner, there is a need to extract spectral bands that are uncorrelated. A factor analysis based dimensionality reduction technique is employed to extract the spectral bands and a weight least square filter is used to get the spatial information from the data. Due to the preservation of edge property in the spatial filter, much information is extracted during the feature extraction phase. Finally, a nonlinear SVM is applied to assign a class label to the pixels in the image. The research work is tested on the standard dataset Indian Pines. The performance of the proposed method on this dataset is assessed through various accuracy measures. These accuracies are 96%, 92.6%, and 95.4%. over the other methods. This methodology can be applied to forestry applications to extract the various metrics in the real world.

The ultrafast active cavitation imaging (UACI) based on plane wave can be implemented with high frame rate, in which adaptive beamforming technique was introduced to enhance resolutions and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of images. However, regular adaptive beamforming continuously updates the spatial filter for each sample point, which requires a huge amount of calculation, especially in the case of a high sampling rate, and, moreover, 3D imaging. In order to achieve UACI rapidly with satisfactory resolution and SNR, this paper proposed an adaptive beamforming on the basis of compressive sensing (CS), which can retain the quality of adaptive beamforming but reduce the calculating amount substantially. The results of simulations and experiments showed that comparing with regular adaptive beamforming, this new method successfully achieved about eightfold in time consuming.
